I agree with most said.
I went with French before spanish and I found French to be much harder. There aren't many spanish words I found to have silent letters as opposed to French where every other word has a silent letter.

Le français est la langue de l'amour.
French is the language of love.
El idioma francés es la lengua del amor.
Good start.

I will learn Spanish after fluency in Mandarin, then next will be French. For one, it sounds fucking cool. Also, French girls have some sort of thing about them that drives me absolutely crazy. I don't know what it is. They're stunning. Third, it's such a snobby thing to do as an American.

Is it common for French girls to have short hair like that? I always imagine them with bobs and smoking long cigarettes

You can find a lot of good stuff for French on Youtube.
As for Spanish speakers learning French, they especially have a very hard time with pronounciation.

I'm in two minds about French. Sometimes I love the sound of it but other times it just sounds like a fat man spitting everywhere while he chokes on the cigarette tar and grease in his throat
Anyway, Michel Thomas French course is top notch, and the Paul Noble course is very much similar. Assimil course is good too.
Would be cool of this turned into a French language lounge thing

how long did it take for you to become minimally conversationally fluent?

Depends on what your definition of minimally conversationally fluent is.

Yeah I wrote about the Simpsons in French on my language blog a while back
There were tons of episodes of Simpsons with French subtitles on Youtube back a few months ago, but they seem to have taken them down. However you can still find Simpsons in French on Youtube, however without the subtitles.

Je parle francais!
Took 4 years of it in high school so it got drilled pretty good but I am not going to lie it was useless living here in LA and forgot a lot of it. My first language was spanish but I am better in English and i can say french is very similar to spanish but it gets a little confusing in the more advanced stuff.
I love the language though and I know the basics I can make my way around if you dropped me in france right now but I want to dig all this back up from the depths of my brain.
